Ever have the desire to throw in the towel? To resign from a church or even drop out of the ministry? Craig Brian Larson has. As a pastor, he's experienced the day-to-day responsibilities that can overwhelm even the noblest reasons for entering the ministry. But he also knows how to persevere. In Staying Power, he invites all pastors and ministry leaders to rediscover and grow in the perseverance that is so central to spiritual life and ministry. He explores root issues of pastoral discouragement, suggests ways to work through them, and all the while offers enthusiasm and confidence to continue your ministry. - Back cover
